Testing my javascript in <> environnement

[freddybee]

Hi everybody.

I have more or less finished my brand new website.
I wrote a lot of javascript code thanks to some of you.
I use IE6 with XP

A friend of mine told me that he had some pb with IE5

I finally found someone with an IE5.5 installed but everything works fine. After several days of research, there is one guy who had NT with IE5 .... and I was able to find one of the error (by the way IE5- is not able to understand an accuentated variable (sorry I'm french and as an example "départ" has to have the accent on the e).

I do have another pb, I do have a layer on top of other with a table in it

<table width="215" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td height="2" bgcolor="'+MenuBgColorTop+'"></td></tr><tr><td bgcolor="'+MenuBgColorSep+'"></td></tr><tr><td height="400">&nbsp;</td></tr></table>

The firs row of the layer has a color in the baground and that's it.
The second and last row nothing, but is supposed to hide another layer with content behind.

In IE5.5 and 6 it works fine.
In IE5, the content of the layer behind is seen through that layer.

Any idea to solve

Do you know a software wich emulate IE4, IE5, IE5.5, etc ...
I found one but it is only capable of emulating IE4 or less.


Thanks again for your support :thumbsup:

Did you try z-index?

In javascript I beleive it is Zindex (can't use the "-")

Thank you Graham for your help.

As you read in my message my layer is on top of another.
That works fine in IE5+ and yes I do use the zindex to order my layer.

The pb is somewhere else.

Any other idea ???

Browser emulators are worse than useless - really, *worse* than useless.

What you need is a virtual-desktop kind of thing - where you can install virtual computers running independent OSs - then you can install anything you want, such as IE4 on Win95 or IE5 on Win2K. My recommendation would be VMWare (http://www.vmware.com)
